Groundhog's Day is on February 2nd each year. On this day, in Punxsatawney, Pennsylvania, thousands of onlookers watch to see if Phil, the groundhog, will cast a shadow. If he does, then six more weeks of winter are predicted. If he doesn't, then an early spring is predicted. Historically, Phil's prediction has only been correct about 40% of the time.

Using complete sentences, design a simulation to determine the probability that Phil's prediction will be correct at least two out of the next three years. Make sure to explain how you would use the simulation to determine the probability.

Answers

Answer 1

A simulation to determine the probability that Phil's prediction will be correct at least two out of the next three years is given as follows:

Choose three numbers with replacement from the set of 0 to 9, which:

numbers from 0 to 3 representing that Phil is correct.numbers from 4 to 9 represents that Phil is incorrect.

How to calculate a probability?

The parameters that are needed to calculate a probability are given as follows:

Number of desired outcomes in the context of a problem/experiment.Number of total outcomes in the context of a problem/experiment.

Then the probability is calculated as the division of the number of desired outcomes by the number of total outcomes.

The probability of a success on a single trial is given as follows:

40% = 0.4, as Phil is correct 40% of the time.

Hence the simulation needs to have three trials, each with a 0.4 = 40% probability of a success.

A _____________ ratio in any proportional relationship.

Answers

Answer:

a proportional relationship is look at the different values that the variables take on when one variable is one value, and then what is the And then take the ratio between them. and you see y to x, or y divided by x-- the ratio of y to x

If all the ratios are equal, then the relationship is proportional. If all the ratios are not equal, then the relationship is not proportional.

Ratios are proportional if they represent the same relationship. One way to see if two ratios are proportional is to write them as fractions and then reduce them. If the reduced fractions are the same, your ratios are proportional.

We have to get ratio of the two quantities for all the given values. If all the ratios are equal, then the relationship is proportional. If all the ratios are not equal, then the relationship is not proportional.

Writing an Equation to Represent a Proportional Relationship. An expression of equality of ratios is called a proportion. The proportion expressing the equality of the ratios A:B and C:D is written A:B = C:D or A:B::C:D. A is to B as C is to D.

Step-by-step explanation:

Proportions are the same ratios written in different forms. A proportional relationship is states that they are the same. For example, 1/2 and 6/12 have a proportional relationship, which means they are the same.

[tex]4^{8}[/tex] × 4² = [tex]4^{(8+2)}[/tex]

[tex](a^m)^{n}[/tex] = [tex]a^{mn}[/tex] , then

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer: there are eight blocks hidden in the cup.

Step-by-step explanation:

seeing that we don’t know how many blox are in the cup The cup would be a variable in this situation.

x + 4 = 12 cubes

to find your answer you would’ve solve for X, a.k.a. the cup.

x + 4 = 12 cubes

first you would do the inverse operation of addition so instead of adding four  you subtract four from four, so that it cancels out.  Whatever you do to one side you have to do to the other side so you would have to subtract 4 from The previous 12 cubes.

X = 12 - 4

and your final answer would be 8 cubes

x = 8

there are eight blocks/cubes hidden in the cup

Use the table of facts to find the height of 15.338 mi. the volcano in feet.
Round your answer to the nearest tenth.

12 inches ( in ) = 1 foot ( ft )
3 feet ( ft ) = 1 yard ( yd )
36 inches ( in ) = 1 yard ( yd )
5280 feet ( ft ) = 1 mile ( mi )
1760 yards ( yd ) = 1 mile ( mi )

Answers

Answer:

21 km

Step-by-step explanation:

The volcano has a height of over 21 km (13.6 mi or 72,000 ft) as measured by the Mars Orbiter Laser Altimeter (MOLA). Olympus Mons is about two and a half times Mount Everest's height above sea level.

Unit conversion is the conversion of one unit to another unit with its standard conversion.

The height of the volcano is 15.338 miles.

1 mile = 5280 feet.

15.338 miles = 80984.6 feet.

The height of the volcano in feet is 80984.6 feet.

What is unit conversion?

It is the conversion of one unit to another unit with its standard conversion.

Example:

1 hour = 60 minutes

1 meter = 100 cm

We have,

The height of the volcano = 15.338 miles ___(1)

It is given that,

1 mile = 5280 feet _____(2)

From (1) and (2) we get,

15.338 miles

= 15.338 x 1 mile

= 15.338 x 5280 feet

= 80984.64 feet

Rounding to the nearest tenth.

= 80984.6 feet

Thus,

The height of the volcano is 15.338 miles.

1 mile = 5280 feet.

15.338 miles = 80984.6 feet.

The height of the volcano in feet is 80984.6 feet.
